Chamber is what is shown in "Knight in Shining Armor" and "Knight to Kings Pawn".
On another note, I'm still trying to figure out where the SSC is, despite the "Location: CLASSIFIED" deal! lol I know where the ACTUAL building is but I don't know if I should use that in my comic/fiction or not. haha.

I believe I mentioned the SSC acronym being used for both Shelby and Knight Rider before.
It's interesting that Shelby and KR08 use 2 of the same acronyms. (but have different meanings)
Shelby
SSC: Shelby Super Cars
The SSC Ultimate Aero is the fastest production car in the world!
KR: King of the Road
Shelby GT500KR (also used for KITT)
Knight Rider
SSC: Satellite Surveillance Center
KR: Knight Research
It makes me wonder if this was done on purpose.

I have to rectify this before anyone starts slapping commercial all over it, but SSC (Shelby Super Car) is a totally different company and totally unrelated to Ford and or Carroll Shelby International (the company responsible for the GT500KR).
So the resemblance of the SSC to SSC the company is totally coincidental and unintended.

Inconceivable! I guess I don't need to wonder about that anymore!
I never would of thought there were two different Shelbys, unrelated, that have their own companies and yet they both build super fast sports cars. A coincidence in itself?
Verdict of using the SSC acronym: Definitely a coincidence

Lol now that was funny

!
Well... the reason behind the similarity of the companies is because both their founders are called Shelby, they are not related to each other though.

It's an old blimp hanger. The entire name of the base is Marine Corps Air Station Tustin in Tustin California. Here is a link to some info on the site!
